I love you Rika

That day, I was finally going to settle in Kyoto with my parents, i was happy to make new friends but sad because I had to leave my childhood friends behind. But it was ok, dad said we will go in our Village during vacations. Those are some blur memories which I feel happy remembering even today. I went to Kyoto for my further studies, so I went there and we got settled nice and sweet, next day my dad took me to the Kyoto high school and I got admitted in class six. This all process was very quick. I was 14 years old and very arrogant, but who knew a girl could melt me like that. So the school started and it was my first day in school, it all was very nervous because I could barely speak. But somehow I managed to pass the day. A few day passed and then I came across a name, someone yelled "Rika" and I wondered who she was as she remained absent those days. A week passed by and that girl Rika joined the class. I saw her and I was like wow who is this beauty, at that moment my heart skipped a beat, she was so gorgeous.

A month passed and I did nothing, i didn't even talked to her. I struggled to talk to her, we made eye contact rarely for a second, and sometime she used to smile at me, and I looked away because of shyness. Everyday I came home and I thought why couldn't I talk to her and I decided that I will talk to her tomorrow anyhow, my tomorrow never came, but few months in I had started talking to her, like asking for the notes, asking her favourite color, and all on the last row in our computer lab. But these conversations never lasted 5 seconds. I remembered when I asked for her history notebook and she smiled and denied saying she needs to study for day after tomorrow's test. In the class our seats remained changing but me looking at her remained constant. I thought I was in love, a second name for that will be "destruction". The little talks, smiling at each other, good mornings, eye contacts keep happening and class 6 came to an end, but i could never say her that "i love you rika".
